This article tracks rather closely (eerily, in fact) with the Communist Parties actual instructions for its media people of the late 1930's on how to report Soviet 'news'.

That is freaky. Given the fact that I merely reverse-engineered published stories I saw posted on the Internet, it can be said that my humble list is an exact negative of what the media is doing.

That's how I came up with my list, by the way. At first I thought I'd look for WWII books about propaganda, as those would probably be the most intense. But that was an awkward effort, so instead I just started picking out patterns and assigning them names (my background is in systems design, so recurring patterns come naturally to me). The result was this list.
